I was running Siege for Mayfair’s DC Heroes the other night and then I looked into the writer, Jerry Epperson, who wrote for Dragon Magazine and Boot Hill and more.

There are no interviews with him I could find. Anyone know what happened to him, or if there is any info about who he was or anything about his game designs? (Or if he’s still around somewhere.)

I’m running DC Heroes as a one-shot (first time running it in 5 years) and I want to run one of the classic Mayfair Adventures. I’ll have 3-4 players, using classic DC heroes. Which Adventures do you like best? Anyone want to give me their Top 5 list?

I have been able to get my backhand to 300’ and really can’t seem to get any more hip power because when I try to brace on my front leg and rotate faster, my bad right knee (I have no ACLs in either knees and constant meniscus problems because of that) just buckles and it feels like I should NOT be putting that much torque on it.

Are there backhand forms that pivot around the front toe or heel and don’t require as much knee bracing and twisting as “proper” form? Any models or videos of how to get distance if you can’t brace for a full power backhand?

In the newest Flight Diaries podcast (which is GREAT), McBeth talks about why he didn’t join the original Prodigy lineup. I wasn’t playing disc golf at that time, so I have only pieced this together from older message boards, but I know Prodigy was huge for the sport with their payments to touring players and their originally announced team was this:

Catrina Allen

Paige Pierce

Sarah Hokom

Cale Leiviska

Paul Ulibarri

Garrett Gurthie

Cameron Colglazier

Nikko Locastro

Ricky Wysocki

Jeremy Koling

Will Schusterick

My question: why are all but a few of these players no longer with Prodigy? They were listed as “founders” when the company launched, but most didn’t stick around. What happ

The Zone, Tactic, and Harp fly basically the same for me, but I prefer the Zone (Jawbreaker) for closer 80-100’ish forehand approaches, and the Tactic (Exo Hard) for approaches around 100-150’, particularly if they need to bend in at the end. What do you bag out of these three? What plastic? Or do you have something else for that overstable approach slot? (Or do you use a completely different approach strategy?)

Okay, I figured out the snap with my backhand release and yes I practiced it by throwing fairway drivers into my couch because it was too cold and we had too much snow but we got out today in 18" of the white stuff and played a round and my drives were waaaay better than they were a month ago. Easily getting 50 extra feet with Beasts and TeeBirds with no extra effort.

Here's my question: do you still snap (and let the disc rip out) on approach shots? Do you snap on putter drives? The rim just seems too big for that, so let me know how it is done with putter drives and approach shots, reddit masters of the disc.
